Ongoing advancement in technology and quality
our top priority has always been to develop watches that offer superior
performance – both in daily and in professional use. which is why our
engineers are working continually to identify which innovative methods,
materials and technologies are best suited for optimising our watches.
each new development has to first undergo rigorous practical tests before
being incorporated. and no watch leaves our workshops before it has
been subjected to thorough checking and fine adjustment by our master
watchmakers.
Workshop modifications and hand-engraving
From the robust case and the polished crystal
through to elaborate refinements: we make sure
that each and every detail of our watches is fit
for purpose. the same applies to our workshop
modifications. only the perfect interaction of all
components and technologies ensures that our
watches can meet all their design specifications
in full. take for example the Sz02 calibre of our
u1000 diving chronograph. the 60-minute scale
of the stopwatch minute counter is much simpler
and more intuitive to read than the 30-minute
scale commonly found on other watches. the
hand-engraving represents a highly personal
form of refinement. if required, our specially
trained master engraver can etch a name,
initials, monograms or symbols onto the rotor,
movement bridge and case back.
